AirPower was announced in the Apple Event in September 2017 with the unveiling of iPhone X which featured to be using the Wireless Charging through the AirPower and at that time the company said that the device will start shipping sometime in 2018, but not a single device was shipped till today.
AirPower was displayed by Apple as it could charge three devices all together at the same time using the unique technology of multi coils which let the device charge at full efficiency from any place on the mat and also an update to the iPhone to let the user know how much your devices have been charged through the mat.
But since the AirPower is officially down you can still opt for the Samsung Wireless Charger Duo which can charge your iPhone and AirPods at the same time using the Qi technology for wireless charging with the cost of $119 (INR 14,897) an updated and cheaper version ($64.50) of the charger is available for the US.
